Star Wars fans Kyle Shearrer and his dad Phil recently created a hilarious photo series of stormtroopers assembling a Christmas tree in galaxy far, far away. Complete with an appearance from Darth Vader, it captures everything we love about the sci-fi series, right up to the utter incompetence of the clones.

“My dad owns about 10 stormtroopers and we always like playing with them, figured we would do something a little more festive this year,” Kyle wrote on Reddit. “The whole thing took probably an hour or two on and off to set up, and we had a blast trying to give every trooper a little story.”

The sequence, of course, is a tribute to the latest upcoming Star Wars installment The Force Awakens, which is set to be released on Dec 18. So muster all the force you can, and check out the images below:
